Actor Dhanush, who showed off his directorial prowess with the critically acclaimed 2017 film Power Paandi, is preparing for his next project as a director. In 2018, the Asuran star was in talks for his second directorial project, which was to be a big-budget film with a large ensemble cast. However, the project was shelved. Dhanush teamed up with Sun Pictures earlier this year for his second directorial venture, which also marks his 50th film as an actor. Currently, the production of the film that is tentatively titled 'D50' is rapidly approaching completion.
